==Communication== | ==Communication== | ||
There are many ways to communicate with other players in Achaea, and none may be considered the most common. Most of these ways are used very widely, if not all. | |||
Using SAY(also ' or "), you can speak to everyone in the room. | |||
Say Boy, says sure are fun! | |||
translates to | |||
You say, "Boy, says sure are fun!" | |||
to you, and | |||
Superduperlovechildofdeath says, "Boy, says sure are fun!" | |||
to everyone else in the room with you. | |||
Using TELL(also T), you can speak to one specific person, whether they are in the room with you or not, provided they are logged on and on the same plane and part of the world as you(ie., not too far away, like your intended recipient being in the icy north and you being in the southern mountain range). | |||
Tell Maran I like to send tells! | |||
translates to | |||
You tell Maran, "I like to send tells!" | |||
to you, and | |||
Superduperlovechildofdeath tells you, "I like to send tells!" | |||
to Maran. | |||
In addition to tells and says, there are dozens of other ways to communicate, including CLT (clantell), CLT1 (clantell1, you may have up to 30 different clans and speak on them without switching back and forth by using the number), HT (housetell), HNT (housenewcomertell), HTS (housetellsecret), CT (citytell), NEWBIE (the newbie channel, just for you and your fellow newbies to ask questions on, and, of course, those who wish to help you), SHOUT (this goes to nearly everyone), YELL (a say to everyone in the area instead of everyone in the room), CHANT, SCREAM, MUTTER, SING, WHINE, ASK, EXCLAIM and SNARL (all fancy ways to SAY that have interesting results. Go ahead and try them all!), and finally SAY TO/AT (still a say that everyone in the room can hear, but directed at a specific person). | |||
Let's summarise, because this looks messy: | |||
*say | |||
*tell | |||
*clt, clt1-30 | |||
*ht, hts, hnt | |||
*shout | |||
*yell | |||
*ct | |||
*newbie | |||
*chant, scream, mutter, sing, whine, ask, exclaim, snarl | |||
*say to, say at, sing to, et cetera | |||
You can also send message to those who are not logged in using MESSAGE (name) (message to send), and he or she will receive this message at the next login. | |||
To read messages, you can use MESSAGES FULL to read them all at once or RM to read them one at a time. | |||
